As we see action sports increasingly gain global appeal, there ontinues no doubt we'll see more Latin American kids rise through the ranks of professional athletes...

Luan Oliveira sits down for our second edition of 'From the Streets to the League', where Street League pros talk about how they came up skating and ended up in Street League.

This event already happened. But this image represents a unique mash-up of creative concepts I've been working on as of late, had to document it...

I admire how skaters are free to just push in any direction. I don’t know, that’s why they make so many skateparks for free now, to stop that freedom, to get them all into a caged area.[...] Skateboarding is a total art form, there’s no way around it. If it weren’t everyone would be wearing jerseys.

One of my favorite skaters of all time...always going against the grain.

Capítulo de Piel Concreto grabado en Mazatlán

Second episode of the Vans MX documentary 'Piel Concreto' exploring the growth of the skateboarding in Mexico. Tony Alva makes an appearance and reinforces the surf+music connection.

Still, I'm fairly surprised by the fact that very little is known overall about the evolution of surfing in the country, especially considering how many accessible breaks are found there.

Primer capítulo del Tour Piel Concreto, grabado en la ciudad de Monterrey.

Vans Mexico is doing an interesting little documentary on the country's skate scene via Piel Concreto. It will be intriguing to see how different, or similar, they are from one another in the southwest part of the United States. One thing I already noticed is that the drug gang violence has already sped up the construction of skate parks...The sport will only grow as a result of this social trend.

An experimental short for the magazine UMAG about the lifestyle of a group of skateboarders and surfers in São Paulo and Florianópolis - Brazil

Jonah dreams of being able to fly away from his life in the housing commission. But after an encounter at the local skate park, he finds his wings in an unexpected way.

São Paulo, foi escolhida uma das 5 cidades do mundo a sediar uma prestigiosa disputa na categoria amador: o D.C. King of Series, que existe também em Barcelona, Dublin, Los Angeles e Vancouver.

The DC King of São Paulo is another clear sign that action sports culture and lifestyle continues to move towards global status. Now in its third year, it shows where things are heading.
